Still have to finish the dash tomorrow night but glad I decided to do it. I was really concerned about getting the new cables through the tube but they went much easier than expected.

Going to be nice having smooth indicators again!

Finished cables and everything working great. Used a straight edge off the hull to align the tabs and drives. Set that in the middle of the indicator on zero. I could see where some springs on the back of the indicator might help. Mine doesnt have any and there is a slight amount of delay going from one direction to the other. Just happy to have them working smoothly.

After finishing cables bolted my freshly rebuilt drive back on and cleaned her up. Put it in the water Saturday and burnt up a MSD box! Ordered two boxes from Jeg's and hope to be back out on the water next weekend. Always something.....
